yet another rejection for ma frnd same reason they said1justification for the purpose and conditions of intended stay was not provided2 your intention to leave the territory of the republican of poland before the expiry of the visa could not be determined

whoever get the refusal, on working visa try to ask your employer to email to embassy and to call and vote for you. Employers are really need workers that's why they are willing to do that. Embassy's phone is busy all the time though.. And you can re-apply without getting a new date within 15 days. Sometimes people get visa when re-apply.

I received my work visa recently from Mumbai consulate, so sharing the detailed experience as it was very tough for me to gather information on the process and documents.

Firstly, if you are finding things to be difficult, especially communication to the consulate and what to do next etc, it is simply because things like when dates would open and other things are not properly organized including the IT infrastructure.

However, once you are able to submit your application things are generally smooth.

1. The dates open ideally on Monday 10pm as mentioned on the website. However, there is no guarantee that it would. You need to keep trying in the morning 9-11 slot and afternoon 3pm and later for all days in the week. The appointment dates at the Mumbai consulate are open mostly after a month of when you are applying. For eg: If you search for dates on 20th April, the dates for appointment would be roughly 20th May; you might receive options of 3-5 consecutive dates depending on the empty slots. So bear this in mind while planning.

Before filling up the form on the website, it is better you already have a PDF ready from the left menu (National visa - Fill out the form ) This will enable you to fill up the online form quickly, avoid mistakes and submit when you are getting the appointment. The only difference between the two forms will be that while actually booking you will get an email confirmation on the date and time of appointment.

2. For the work visa, the website has a pdf with list of documents to be attached. This is pretty clear. I had submitted invitation letter and bank statement on top of what was mentioned. But I guess, if you don't it should be fine. While submission ensure everything is in the order. This will help the person receiving your application to cross-check. Once submitted, they will give you a token with number printed on it. This number will show up on the website in 12-20 days, post which you can go and collect your passport. The decision is only known then, not on the call or email. While the website mentions it takes 14 days, there is a chance it will be more. Mine was 17 days.

3. Work permit original document is needed for verification at the time of submission. But it is better to keep all originals possible, just in case.

4. I recently read in this thread that some work visas are getting rejected; curious to know why so that it may help other people.

5. Some documents I personally think are most important: Invitation letter, Employment contract, flight and Work permit. I had also submitted a covering letter with details of purpose of visits, passport etc.

6. I missed on the payment part earlier. It needs to be made at ADCB (the fees is now 4900). The bank is bang outside the Churchgate station, easy to find. Make a payment and collect the pink slip for submission. The consulate is near to this bank (5mins by taxi and 20 mins walk).

That's what I remember for now. Will post more details, if I find them to be important.
